lyrics

This is the story of a man
Raised by marsupials somewhere in Turkmenistan
One day his home was pillaged by vikings
After losing a rap battle to Stephen Hawking

So he swam off to the Emirates
But got kidnapped by Somalian pirates
He was then sold for a couple of chickens
Before getting abducted by some aliens

I can't change your luck
But I can try to cheer you up
With my truly silly rhyme
That is so hideous, it's a crime
If I could only get one grin
After you've given this a listen
Then we can sail off to Antarctica
And make friends with the penguins.

He jumped into the water
And got harpooned by a deep sea diver
He was chased by a wolf pack
Which caused him to have a heart attack

He accidentally starred in a porno
The day a chupacabra ate his toe
His girlfriend cheated on him with his therapist
The night he sleepwalked into a drug bust

I can't change your luck
But I can try to cheer you up
With my truly silly rhyme
That is so hideous, it's a crime
If I could only get one grin
After you've given this a listen
Then we can sail off to Antarctica
And make friends with the penguins.
